[FR] L'église Sainte-Foy (appelée également St.-Fides-Kirche en allemand) est construite au XIIe siècle dans le style roman, en plein cœur de la ville de Sélestat, dans le Bas-Rhin. Elle se situe tout près de l'église gothique Saint-Georges et de la Bibliothèque humaniste.

Seul vestige de l'ancien prieuré des bénédictins puis des jésuites, dont elle était l'église conventuelle, elle est classée monument historique depuis 1862.
